great knock by our capt. champion.

 

[SoulSearcher]

Missed all but the last hour of play 3/346 isn't bad for the first day at the Gabba

 

[runtlocks]

Harmison

First bowl of the day is a wide, the crowd goes nuts.

He bowls like a dead fucking fish, no enthusiasm or confidence whatsoever so far shown by him yet. Not a fun bowler to watch, but great to watch him get hit all over the park

 

[BlackDragon]

lets hope we push on to 600 and beyond and then trouble the english batting order.

 

[runtlocks]

Strewth Punter!!

Aye, Gilly!

looks like the swing is kicking in

 

[AntiJap]

fuck off hoggard.

 

[BlackDragon]

got 500. need to push on to 600 i say, give us a major upperhand.

 

[goony]

602! looks like punter is pushing for the follow on.

 

[BlackDragon]

i am going to wait until peterson and flintoff are gone before i totally rule them out.

 

[cl3nta]

i am going to wait until peterson and flintoff are gone before i totally rule them out.

too true

 

[Nesty]

we are on fire. we're gonna get home. i can just feel it

 

[wuddie]

punter and pigeon, what legends... we are gonna miss pigeon so much when he retires

 

[sydneyswansfan]

Who ever doubted Pidgeon? And stu clark is too much like mcgrath? Isnt that a good thing? Beautiful work aus, the only prob is the captain is yet to bat. Once hes gone, Australia to shit it in.

 

[BlackDragon]

pieterson and flintoff must gooo. and maybe bell.

 

[SoulSearcher]

Well the first session tomorrow will pretty much determine whether England can fight back, or whether Australia will finish them off relatively quickly.

 

[BlackDragon]

yeah, 2, 3 or 4 early wickets could see the end of the test match really.

 

[lukeskywilliams]

Yes I agree, should be a good game though !

 

[angelduck]

So, u recon Michael Clarke is in for a chance of staying with the team? Will they perhaps use him as an extra bowler?

Stuart Clark looked so good with the bat and ball! So impressed!

 

[goony]

Another thing about M. Clarke is that he's an excellent fielder.

But i think clarke's place is pretty much interchangable with whomever the selectors want to play. If they put in a bowler (eg tait, johnson, macgill for a 2nd leggie etc) then our bowlers can still bat quite a bit (lee, to an extent: warne, S. clark) and our batsmen look in fine form. If they want to play a batsman like clarke, our bowling attack still looks pretty solid with lee, mcgrath, clark, warne and...hussey and clarke rolling over the wrist for a few overs. Or they can play an all rounder like watson (he's underachieved IMHO and needs more time).
